Using domestic source is probably more safe than over seas. That is why you feel your ilgm seeds come from within the US lol. I wouldn’t say overseas shipping is unsafe, but there are more risks involved. The good companies will mitigate those risks. My whole point here was to not undermine their attempts to get us seeds safely and swiftly.

Just honestly, I’ve heard of the letters n even fone calls from customs. I’ve not received any personally, but the scary part is that list u spoke of lol I’d rather not be on a watch list of any kind, even if there isnt any possibility of the government ever being able to actively do anything with it as I’m sure there are too many on a list like that to even know where to start lol

Hahaha! Nothing like saying don’t worry, I’ll come turn myself in.
This is what scares me. I’m lazy, so when I order seeds it’s typically several packs.

That’s not lazy that’s smart, save on shipping n so on, n there generally cheaper the more u buy, n the site I been using (which now I’m scared to deviate from) has generally always got some bogo seeds…I’m lazy in that way too though, I’m the type to hit every store I need to Friday afternoon so I dont have to leave the house again till Monday, n most things I like to buy in bulk, deodorant, ramen, light bulbs, weed seeds, anything I use regularly so I dont run out, hate running out of my favorite shit
N the bad thing is I literally live in the center of my town so I’m like down the street from everything n I still dont like to leave lol
Well I do it because I’m lazy lol. Certainly not because I need them. I get agitated when I have to order from more than 1 place to get what I want, but that’s life. I have been at it for a while, I certainly don’t need any seeds. But I’ll bet there’s at least 1 4/20 sale that sucks me in.

Ima sucker for a good deal man, plan and simple
Honestly I thought about buying this one again with a different bogo strain, the gelato strawberry n gold leaf’s r all set tho so I’d get all those again
I have bought seeds from all over the world in the last 20 yrs. and have had 2 confiscation letters out of probably 150 orders. I look at it this way, if the government wants me and my 2 or 3 plants then so be it. Trust me they are not after small potatoes like us. Now you got 60 or 70 or more plants going, I would start to worry. Keep your grow to yourself and act normal. Never brag about how great a gardener you are. These are the things that get people caught. Happy growing! Mike. P.s. I have never heard of having to go to ups or usps to get my seeds unless it needed to be signed for or postage was due. Just my experience.

Yes I had to go to the UPS store to pick them up. UPS sent me an email saying they couldnt deliver to me and i would have to go to the store.UPS has never done this before. The combination of everything just freaked me out.

I always buy stateside but couldn’t find the Nepalese or Lebanese from my usual supply chain. The seeds turned out to be very good and popped open right away. I hope it is really the strain I ordered,but how would you ever know?
